Manufacturer Narrative

The product was tested with bovine blood for its o2 & co2 transfer rates as well of it pressure drop behaviour at maximum flow.The product was operating within the acceptance criterias and therefore passed the test.No abnormalities were detected, the product operated according to its specifications.Thus the reported failure could not be confirmed.The most probable cause of the reported failure is unknown.Based on these results and the information available at this time, the oxygenator in question operated within maquet cardiopulmonary specifications.Since the reported failure did not contribute to a death or serious injury and no systemic issue could be determined no corrective action is needed at this time.
